ashikuli1 Member 79 posts Joined Jul 2011 More info | Apr 03, 2012 10:59 | #1 I am very confused with my 60D. I am noticing that when I am taking indoor shots using pop up flush in SS 1/60, F 2.8, ISO 400, I am getting underexposed almost dark pictures. My flush exposure is set to standard. However if I turn the setting to AUTO the camera sets the same settings (SS 1/60, F 2.8, ISO 400) w/flush and the outcome is much brighter. I am using Canon 17-55 Lens. Really confused, can you guys please help me? Canon 6D|Canon 60D |Canon 50 1.8| Canon 85mm 1.2 L | Canon 24-105 L| Canon 17-40 L| Canon 17-55 IS | Canon 70-200 L F4 IS | 430Ex II |

Were you using P, greenbox, Av, Tv, or M mode when getting this underexposure? Fee

Av, Tv and M - when I was seeing the under exposure. But the wireless flush settings make sense, because in the manual and semi manual settings even though I am seeing the flush is firing it does not contribute the lighting to the exposure. However in Auto mode the camera is re-setting the wireless mode... What do you think?
